The BLESSED HOPE of the RAPTURE of the CHURCH has turned into one of HELL'S MOST EFFECTIVE EFFORTS to DIVIDE and CONQUER the CHURCH.
To say it another way, the RAPTURE of the CHURCH has become the "RUPTURE" of the CHURCH!
To say it another way, the RAPTURE of the CHURCH has become the "RUPTURE" of the CHURCH!
In the VERY BEST HYPOTHESIS, the "TIMING" of the RAPTURE is information known only to GOD. HE will NOT be revealing the timing of the RAPTURE PRIOR to the BLESSED EVENT!
With that clearly stated, the SCRIPTURES also contain an enormous amount of INSTRUCTIONS concerning the "LAST DAYS". It behooves the children of GOD to study the subject including specific details about the END TIMES that GOD revealed to HIS servants, the PROPHETS for us, the saints of the LAST DAYS!
What cannot happen is when facing differences of theological "OPINIONS," is to allow the ENEMY of our souls to cause DIVISION and CONTENTION over such a FUNDAMENTAL DOCTRINE as the RAPTURE of the CHURCH!
Can we at least AGREE to DISAGREE AGREEABLY?
We will only KNOW for a FACT which interpretation concerning the LAST SEVEN YEARS proves to have been correct AFTER the RAPTURE. However, by then, IT WON'T MATTER! ;-)
To me, it doesn't make much sense that the LORD included SO MUCH INFORMATION concerning a period of time in which the CHURCH will have theoretically, ALREADY BEEN RAPTURED!
To remove the CHURCH BEFORE the END TIMES just when "ALL HELL WILL BREAK LOOSE on planet Earth" that will target the CHURCH and ISRAEL, makes no sense! Read again REVELATION 12.
Keep in mind that during the SECOND HALF of the LAST SEVEN YEARS, the ANTICHRIST prevails to such an extent as to be able to require every person on Earth to have the MARK of the BEAST or be sentenced to DEATH! To remove the CHURCH before this great final battle between GOD and HELL'S ALLIES, seems to me to have the CHURCH go AWOL right before the HOTTEST part of the BATTLE between HEAVEN and HELL begins!
WHY would GOD remove HIS human army just before the UNHOLY TRINITY takes over all aspects of NORMAL HUMAN LIFE?
It is my STRONG OPINION that the ONLY VIABLE place for the "TIMING" of the RAPTURE is at position "D". In other words, on a SPECIFIC DAY that is KNOWN ONLY TO GOD, HIMSELF WILL BLOW A TRUMPET WITHIN THE SECOND HALF OF THE SEVEN YEARS! Upon hearing the sound of the LAST TRUMP OF GOD, the dead in CHRIST will be RAISED to ETERNAL LIFE and we who remain alive at this moment, will be "CAUGHT AWAY" to meet our SAVIOR in the air!
After a very brief time, in practical terms, the time that it will take for pieces of the "EXPLODED SUN" (the "SIGN" of HIS RETURN), asteroids and meteors to begin entering Earth's atmosphere, the WRATH of the LAMB will begin to be outpoured upon MANKIND and demons.
The DAY of HIS WRATH that will begin on the day that the CHURCH is RAPTURED will continue until all 2520 prophetic days are COMPLETE!
Contextually, it seems to me that one could make the case that the day of the RAPTURE will be far closer to the end of the SEVEN YEARS rather than closer to the middle. The ANTICHRIST will be begin to impose the MARK of the BEAST on every person throughout the world on DAY 1260, it stands to reason that the RAPTURE will be closer to the END of the SECOND HALF rather than earlier!
Another rationale that strengthens this logical conclusion about the "TIMING of the RAPTURE" is that GLOBAL COMMERCE will THRIVE under the leadership of the ANTICHRIST. LOGISTICALLY, that will take some time! Read REVELATION 18.
Let me make this point VERY CLEAR. ONCE GOD'S WRATH BEGINS, there will be no more requirement to have a "MARK" on the right hand or forehead to "buy or sell", because there will be no more buying or selling! Once the day of HIS WRATH begins, there will be NO COMMERCE!
REVELATION 16:21 refers to hundred pound hailstones falling upon unrepentant mankind amidst TOTAL DARKNESS other than the illumination provided by incoming METEORS and ASTEROIDS, and yet they still will NOT REPENT! The SUN having exploded and the moon no longer reflecting that which no longer exists, along with 100lb hailstones will end any signs of "NORMAL LIFE" on planet Earth!
On the other hand, the BRIDE of CHRIST is not a "CHILD of GOD'S WRATH!" The CHURCH will NOT be present for the WRATH of GOD!
One aspect involving the WRATH of GOD will last for FIVE MONTHS! One can "bet the farm" on the fact that the CHURCH will be RAPTURED before DAY 2370!
2520 - 150 = 2370.
Personally, I believe that it is ENTIRELY POSSIBLE that APOPHIS #99942 (Friday the 13th of April of 2029) is in reality "WORMWOOD" and is part of the WRATH of GOD!
Within this site, I have a section dedicated to this THEORY!
